Yesterdays birthday party only cost me onle nine hours! Could’ve been worse. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

I really like the theme although I only have one real idea as of now: I’m thinking of a “Mega Man”-esque platformer but — wait for it — with a TWIST! Stages would be controlled by two bosses with somewhat opposing “themes”. You would then get to control the enemies by shooting at them with a special weapon, for example. By using the powers of the enemies against each other would then allow you to solve puzzles.<\/p>\n

The problem is that this is a very content heavy idea. The fun here would arise from good level design and I don’t know whether I could make enough levels to make it into a good game.<\/p>\n

I’m gonna take another few minutes to maybe come up with a “simpler” idea, but then I better get cracking to at least have something playable in the end. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>","time":"August 21st, 2010 4:48 am","title":"Obligations"}
